Bouret_Jessica_Summer+2015

My name is Jessica Bouret. I am Puerto Rican and Dominican and was born and raised in the South Bronx. I attended Lehman College where I majored in English Literature and Minored in Education. During college I also had my son who is now 4 and will be moving up to kindergarten. This year has been filled with firsts; this is my son’s first year in school as well as my first year teaching. I currently teach 6th grade humanities at Eagle Academy for Young Men of Harlem. I learned so much in my first year and I look forward to taking what I learn in this class into the next school year.
